“Twitter Permanently Suspends Donald Trump’s Account.”
This ABC news today surprised me!

20 November 2002 Update: I read on Twitter that Trump is back to Twitter.
Purpose of the Post
I want to create a quick short-form story to keep my readers up-to-date with this interesting incident.
A few statements in the ABC News article attracted my attention and made me think about this incident from different angles.
“Twitter Permanently Suspends Donald Trump’s Account.”
Here are two statements that I extracted from the ABC News article:
Donald Trump said:
“I predicted this would happen. We have been negotiating with various other sites, and will have a big announcement soon, while we also look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the near future. We will not be SILENCED!”
“Twitter is not about FREE SPEECH. They are all about promoting a Radical Left platform where some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely.”
From a technology and social media point of view, building a new platform sounds interesting to me. Then, the primary implication of this potential platform is that Twitter may have a competitor.
A political incident may emerge as a technological breakthrough.
The ABC News article mentions that:
“Trump had attempted to post the same statement on Twitter, using the official @POTUS account, but the platform deleted the thread, saying users who are banned cannot post from other accounts. The @POTUS account, rarely used by Trump himself over the past four years, will be transferred over to the Biden administration following his inauguration”.
Considering my recent experience with Twitter, I was wondering whether this might be an AI-induced ban with heavy discussions on social media or whether Twitter made an assessment to suspend Donald Trump’s account for an actual violation of services.
When I reviewed the article again, this quote on the ABC article depicts that Twitter reviewed it and made a brief statement.
“After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” Twitter wrote in a statement.”
I think anyone whose account is suspended gets upset and disappointed.
In an ideal world, rather than suspending an account, giving notice to the account user with conduct guidelines can be a more humanistic approach. If the user habitually breaks the rules, then suspension can be granted.
Having said this, I understand that this incident is an exception to a societal impact.
Since the account owner is a celebrity with a massive number of followers, this incident may escalate and have global implications on social media.
I don’t know what will happen on other social media platforms, but I believe we will read a myriad of tweets about this incident on Twitter. Let’s see how this incident will unfold.
Who knows, we may have a competitor to Twitter.
When the competition starts, the service providers can value their customers better.
This incident may have some global implications on social media.
Exciting times are ahead of us everywhere.
Please comment if you learn more about this incident.
